SI Yanks open season in Brooklyn

Last night, I journeyed south from my Park Slope enclave to Coney Island to catch the home opener of the Brooklyn Cyclones with fellow blogger Emma Span. The Cyclones, the Mets’ affiliate, faced the Staten Island Yankees. The Yanks strung together a bunch of hits and baserunners early on but couldn’t capitalize. Nick Chigges relieved Gabriel Medina after the demoted righty gave the Yanks 5 solid innings. Chigges promptly gave up a three-run home run to Jeffrey Voyles. Chigges walked away from the game with a loss. For more on this game and some pitchers, check out Emma’s post on Eephus Pitch .

The Gleyber Torres Watch

Gleyber's season is over. He suffered a torn left (non-throwing) elbow ligament on a play at the plate on June 17th and had Tommy John surgery on June 21st. He is expected to be ready in time for Spring Training 2018. The Prospect Watch Curse strikes again!
